Shrinking the Earth pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

The discovery of the Americas around 1500 AD was an extraordinary watershed in human experience. It gave rise to the modern period of human ecology, a phenomenon global in scope that set in motion profound changes in almost every society on earth. This new period, which saw the depletion of the lands of the New World, proved tragic for some, triumphant for others, and powerfully affecting for all.

In this work, acclaimed environmental historian Donald Worster takes a global view in his examination of the ways in which complex issues of worldwide abundance and scarcity have shaped American society and behavior over three centuries. Looking at the limits nature imposes on human ambitions, he questions whether America today is in the midst of a shift from a culture of abundance to a culture of limits-and whether American consumption has become reliant on the global South. Worster engages with key political, economic, and environmental thinkers while presenting his own interpretation of the role of capitalism and government in issues of wealth, abundance, and scarcity. Acknowledging the earth's agency throughout human history, Shrinking the Earth offers a compelling explanation of how we have arrived where we are and a hopeful way forward on a planet that is no longer as large as it once was.

如何麵對突如其來而又逐漸消退的重大發展機遇。序言中運用《瞭不起的蓋茨比》中的“綠光理論”概括自己探討的問題。那段話確實有一點環境史的韻味。“當明月上升的時候,那些微不足道的房屋慢慢消逝,直到我逐漸意識到當年為荷蘭水手的眼睛放齣異彩的這個古島——新世界的一片清新碧綠的地方。它那些消失瞭的樹木,那些為蓋茨比的彆墅讓路而被砍伐的樹木,曾經一度迎風飄拂,低聲響應人類最後的也是最偉大的夢想,在那曇花一現的神妙的瞬間,人麵對這個新大陸一定屏息驚異,不由自主地墮入他既不理解也不企求的一種美學的觀賞中,在曆史上最後一次麵對著和他感到驚奇的能力相稱的奇觀。”
